Since my rule was meant to be a bit of a trap I dont want to say too much to give my plans away. But I will say that it was designed to confuse people into thinking precisely the thoughts that GT outlines above. Suffice it to say that I believe his analysis to be incorrect. If the judge wants to know why, I will let him know privately. (Though I would prefer not to; I might want to save my get-out for a later rule, and dont like (for style reasons) to expose rules to judges before they are posted to the FRC.) Presumably both GT and the judge believe that I was unable to post a valid rule immediately after the last one I posted? I have a rule in mind that seems OK... :-) Apologies to the judge for (trying, successfully I hope) to be so devious so early. Best Wishes, Anton -- Rule Date: 2001-09-27 09:55:48 GMT
